I thought as much :msn4: Thanks for the input so far.

my mum told me to try milton sterilsing fluid made up strong, but you need to soak whatever in it. I've yet to test it though. :D

If you were offered this with everything, interior etc there but engine seems to be dead for that price, is it worth it? bodywork not too bad either, seems ok underneath. What say the EB masses?

excellent work 8)

Hullo, is the cab mat the carpet one or rubber please?

Thanks lads, and yes I'm going to go for the ready made option as it will no doubt save time and headaches in the long run :mrgreen:

ahhh..... living at home was great. Completely agree with you on those plus points :mrgreen:

My guess would be the panelling would of been done in two halves. Top and bottom and that the protruding strip was there to help the wood take weight on it? :?:

:lol: so glad I live by myself, and the kids are outranked by me coz I'm the grown up :mrgreen:

Excellent :mrgreen:

Oh I completely get the a/c thing. The smell the noise, you can always tell another a/c coming round the corner and ther's just something about it puttering along in your ears. They are so easy to work on too and would be my engine of choice. Sadly, on my budget I can't afford an a/c daily doing...

Good stuff, keep us updated :mrgreen:

For sure Balders :mrgreen: Though on par with the cost of a new recon a/c lump there can't be a lot in it? ie, you can get an on the road suburu for about £500 if you look about so that's the engine, ecu, wiring loom etc and then it's a visit to RJES. And I suppose you could sell the a/c lump...

if it was that long would you maybe need to have an access point half way as I know my arms wouldn't reach all that way for an elusive little bit that rolled all the way back :mrgreen:

I guess it's horses for courses. The aircooled is great as an occasional engine but, with fuel the price it is, the aircooled isn't a great daily engine imo. There are a lot of people who want to use their a/c dub as a daily but have miles to cover. I think the reason suburu have become a...

Heard nothing but good things about Bears. :) I intend to use them for mine when the time comes.

Good work Men! The power of eb 8) :mrgreen: The only disadvantage would be for someone with a poptop I guess?(other than cracking yr head as you said already :lol: ) But surely that's just a solution of 2 sets of measurments for the bottom piece?

Has anyone pulled out theirs to use as a "map" to make a new one? Was it hard to get the new one back in? Would you use like parachute cord attached to pull through to then pull the new loom through? There may have been a little accident with a grinder at the weekend :msn4:

I know this van well. If I had the money I'd be up there like a shot. It has sentimental value. I hope it goes to a good owner who'll keep hold of it. Good luck with the sale.
